- Dragon’s Crown Pro is the definition of what a remaster should be. Cross save and crossplay with older versions is a great bonus, and the new orchestral score is incredible. This is a game a lot of people missed due to one reason or another. Don’t make that mistake again. This is one of the best beat ‘em up games in the last ten years. More than worth investing into.
Ken McKown · May 18, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Honestly, there's a hell of a lot to like about Dragon's Crown Pro, but hardly any of it is unique to this PlayStation 4 remaster. If you've already played Dragon's Crown to exhaustion on PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Vita, you won't find anything here that'll get your juices flowing. For those who have not yet played Dragon's Crown though, it's the perfect way to enjoy what is destined to become a cult classic.
Richard Seagrave · May 14, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Dragon's Crown remains one of Vanillaware's best titles to grace a PlayStation console and the Pro remaster showcases the beautiful art in 4K glory, but in the end, you're ultimately playing the exact same game that came out five years ago.
Kai Powell · May 12, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - No new content, same flaws, such as the paper thin story and the divisive character designs. For good and for bad, this is the same Dragon's Crown you fell in love with (or not) all those years ago- adjust your expectations accordingly, and you'll know if this is for you.
Pramath Parijat · May 09, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - With its gorgeous 4K visuals, steady 60fps frame rate, grand orchestral score, and cross-platform play, there’s a lot to love here. But if you already own the PS3 or Vita versions, Dragon’s Crown Pro probably isn’t a must-buy. That being said, if you’ve yet to dive into the realm of Hydeland, there’s no better place to start.
Francis DiPersio · May 08, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Dragon's Crown was one of the best Action RPGs for the PS3, and to no one's surprise it's aged well and brought to new life here on the PS4 Pro. Definitely recommended for anyone looking for a solid side-scrolling RPG.
Chris Bowman · May 08, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Dragon’s Crown Pro is a straightforward and worthy remaster that new players will surely be enthralled by. Returning players will not find any new content to newly venture through with this remaster, but if there is any inclination to re-experience the world of Dragon’s Crown, Dragon’s Crown Pro is the way to do it.
Judi Azmand · May 08, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - All three versions share the same Trophy list, so there’s not even that perk to entice Trophy hunters. However, if you’ve never hunted down that Crown or cooed at owlbear cubs before they maul you, it’s time to stop at the Dragon’s Haven Inn. Adventure (and a thief with a tiny head and large hands) awaits.
Keri Honea · May 08, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Dragon’s Crown Pro captures the look and feel of a beat-em up almost perfectly, but it also captures their repetitive nature. For some, the challenges of Dragon’s Crown Pro will feel right at home with the co-op grind. For others, it’s a loop that will wear thin quickly. This is a good game that really does depend on the mood of its players; it is pick up and play friendly, but does it really hold your attention long enough to play it? If nothing else, it is a game worth trying out for yourself to see how much of the grind you’re willing to sit through.
Robert Grosso · May 08, 2018 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - When you deftly combine gorgeous aesthetics, solid RPG mechanics and old-school beat-’em-up action into a single game, it’s hard to go wrong — and it didn’t. Dragon’s Crown was already a stellar game back in 2013 and its remaster is an equally stellar game in 2018. Sure, it would have been great if Vanillaware added extra content to further differentiate it from the original, but when a game plays — and looks — as good as this, it’s hard to hold such complaints against it.
